Default When sleep's an alien experience

Strange encounters of the alien kind have more to do with sleep disorders than little green men with a penchant for kidnapping, according to a study. A survey of people who believed they had had contact with aliens showed they were much more likely to experience sleep paralysis, a state where people are temporarily stuck between sleep and wakefulness and unable to move.

Sleep paralysis is a creepy feeling. I've had it happen to me a couple of times.

I had that happen to me twice within a couple minutes. I thought it was because I was really tired. I tried to talk but I couldn't. Kind of scary.

Are you sure you weren't actually abducted by aliens? It might explain a lot.

For those unfamiliar with Neo's insinuation, he's poking fun at a member whose reputation proceeds him and whose past is speckled with controversy.
